The (Earlier-than-Expected) End of Football Season at Levi’s Stadium: With legitimate Super Bowl aspirations entering the season, the 49ers 2014 campaign will come to a disappointing close on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium. Still, the regular season finale against the Arizona Cardinals will provide the 49ers with a chance to end the season (and in all likelihood, Coach Jim Harbaugh’s tenure) with a win. This will be the first season since 2010 that the team missed the playoffs. On Tuesday, the Foster Farms Bowl, a postseason college football matchup pitting hometown squad Stanford against the Maryland Terrapins, will officially close out the first year of football at Levi’s Stadium.
